More about Spessard Holland surfspot

General: When a swell has other high tide spots washing through, Spessard can be clean and throwing. A deep trough past the inside sandbar allows for steep waves to cascade over the drastic depth change, creating a mid-section with the feel and push of a shorebreak. The sandbars, like most spots, come in go with the shifting sands. Over the past several years, there have been various various beach renourishment projects in this area. Tides: Low to mid tide Size: Waist-3' overhead Wind: SW-W Swell: NE-ENE Bottom: Sand Paddling: Not too bad but can be challenging when the surf is bigger. Spot Rating: Two parks, north and south, can be reliable. The sand occasionally comes together and this spot can become a standout. Large parking lots and easy access. Can get sharky.

Suitable for all ability levels.

There are two parks, North/South, both with ample parking.

Fall-Spring, Hurricane

Crowd Factor: Plenty of room to spread out, but can get a crowd on a good peak. Local Vibe: Pretty mellow overall.

Usually very clean.

Watch for shoreline fishers and sharks.
